Chapter 346 Li Family
An Yunxi's eyes were filled with surprise.
"Lijia Village? Have you found your biological parents?"
An Yunze lowered his eyes, "The old abbot told me that I am from the same place as Senior Brother Huijing. I just went to see him and ask him questions. We won't recognize each other."
As for An Yunze's own affairs, An Yunxi had no excuse to stop him, so she could only whisper to him.
"Be careful. If anything happens, just come to me."
In this Beiling Kingdom, there should be nothing that her prince can't solve.
An Yunze said goodbye and stood up. He didn't even have time to rest, and he couldn't wait to rush to Lijia Village outside the city.
Lijia Village is near Liangshan Temple. It's not far away, but the mountain road is not easy to walk. It takes about an hour to get there by horse.
An Yunze's black robe looked dirty because he hadn't changed it. He still covered his face tightly, revealing only his pale and clear eyes.
He tied his horse to a tree outside the village and walked into the village with only a hundred households. Because it was a village near the capital, the people living here were very neatly dressed, not much different from the people in the city.
The streets of the village were very clean. Some pedestrians carrying things or pushing wooden carts passed by on the road. When they passed by An Yunze, they looked at him curiously, with obvious vigilance in their eyes.
Even many women and children avoided him from a distance after seeing him, as if they were looking at some prehistoric beast.
An Yunze has a cold temperament and a sense of keeping strangers away. His eyes are particularly beautiful and different from those of ordinary people.
He suddenly stopped and grabbed a middle-aged man in his forties. The man stiffened instantly and showed obvious fear on his face.
"What are you doing?"
When other people around saw this scene, they also stopped and even put down what they were doing.
Most of the people in the village knew each other, as if if An Yunze took action here, they would definitely help out.
An Yunze asked directly, his voice was a little cold.
"Excuse me, where is the village chief's home?"
Upon hearing him ask this, the man's expression relaxed a little, and he immediately pointed at the tallest house not far away with a trembling hand: "The largest brick and tile house in this village is the village chief's home. I wonder what this young hero wants to do by looking for the village chief?"
An Yunze's attitude was very gentle: "I just want to ask the village chief some things in the past."
Seeing that An Yunze's murderous intent had been restrained and he had no ill intentions, the man finally said: "Then I'll take you there."
This man was also perceptive. Knowing that An Yunze was of an extraordinary identity, he also intended to leave a good impression on the other party, and even spoke with a bit of flattery.
But just as he was about to leave, he suddenly looked in one direction and whispered to An Yunze: "That's the eldest son of the old village chief, Li Dashan."
Looking in the direction the middle-aged man said, An Yunze saw a man in his forties wearing a gray robe. When the man saw An Yunze coming towards him, he took a few steps back with a slightly weak leg, and his face turned pale.
The village chief of Lijia Village does not have a very good reputation in this village, but after all, he is a small official with some power. Other people in the village are still somewhat afraid of the village chief's family.
The man just now obviously had some grudges against the village chief's family, and he sold out the village chief's family without hesitation.
An Yunze stood directly in front of the other party and took a look at his appearance.
The man had a square face, a big nose, and a lot of stubble on his chin. He was the kind of guy who couldn't be more ordinary.
He had dark skin and was not tall. When he stood in front of him, the difference was very obvious.
An Yunze was a little suspicious, but he didn't think much about it. He just asked, "I have something to visit the village chief."
The flesh on the man's cheek twitched, and he didn't dare to show his face to An Yunze. After
all, An Yunze had a long sword hanging diagonally on his waist. It was obvious that the weapon was often used, and he was afraid that the other party would chop him if he was unhappy.
"Please come this way,"
An Yunze went straight to visit.
After he was brought home by the eldest son of the Li family, he sat on a chair in the living room. After a while, an old man walked out of the room.
The old man was already over sixty years old, with gray hair and a hunched body. After seeing An Yunze, he hurriedly said politely: "Young man, you came to my house, is there something wrong?" After all, the
old man was older, more steady, and more experienced.
Seeing that An Yunze did not attack their family directly, it can be seen that this man is not a bad person.
As long as you can talk sense, just be respectful.
An Yunze looked around.
The Li family's conditions are good, with all kinds of furniture and furnishings. The doors are painted red and very conspicuous.
An Yunze slammed the sword in his hand on the table.
The faces of the family changed.
Li Dashan behind the old man subconsciously hid behind his father.
An Yunze asked directly: "Twenty years ago, did the Li family lose a child?"
"Ah?"
The old village chief was stunned, his gray beard trembled slightly, and then he nodded hesitantly.
"It is true."
Upon hearing the other party's admission, An Yunze's heart was lifted at this moment.
His eyes flashed with a dark color, and his fingers clenched into fists consciously.
Even though his nails had sunk into his palms, he did not feel the slightest pain.
"Where was the child lost?"
The old village chief turned around and glanced at Li Dashan.
"You lost the child. Tell the young man where you lost him?"
Li Dashan said quickly, "It was on the river bank at the entrance of the village. I wanted to throw him into the river as you said, but I couldn't bear it, so I put him on the bank and let him die."
Hearing what the other party said, An Yunze felt a little suffocated.
Hearing that he might have been abandoned by his own father, his mood suddenly became very heavy.
This journey to find his relatives was not pleasant at all, just as he had expected.
An Yunze suddenly raised his eyes, and a trace of coldness burst out from his light-colored eyes.
"Isn't that child your biological child? Why do you want to throw it away?"
The father and son of the Li family had no idea why An Yunze asked him this. For a moment, their minds were occupied by fear, so they dared not hide anything.
The old village chief sighed, and his eyes showed a helpless emotion: "After all, he is my grandson. If he were a normal person, how could I bear to throw him away? It's because he is not a child at all, but a monster!"
